1700s: The Sikh nation, with their sweat & blood liberate Punjab after centuries of foreign rule - establish a fair & just state far superior to most

1849: Punjab's mainland annexed by the British empire- Its provinces of Kashmir, Jammu & Ladakh handed to empire loyalist🧵
14, 15 Aug - the British empire in South Asia hand over power to their proteges- Muslim League & Hindu-controlled Congress

17 Aug- Punjab's partition published. Sikh national homeland split without delineating the rightful share for a Sikh state, but promise of autonomy in East
1947: Half the Sikh nation endure a violent population exchange towards East.
Instead of autonomy, forced to share democracy with Indians. De-facto, non-Punjabis given full control of economic, political, educational, cultural, linguistic, & social life of the Sikh nation

farm laws to be repealed!

before anything else, i am thinking of the 700 plus farmers and workers who died protesting over the past year. lives deemed worthless to this regime.

#FarmersProtest

i think of the grandparents who froze to death. the journalists abducted. the farmers trampled to death. the activists jailed.
it’s almost a year since farmers from punjab began a long march to delhi in opposition to the modi regime’s corporate monopolization of agriculture. in the year since, we saw the resilience of the farmers and the oppression of the state.

ਜਾਣੋ: ਭਾਈ ਜਗਤਾਰ ਸਿੰਘ ਜੱਗੀ ਜੌਹਲ ਕੌਣ ਹੈ ਅਤੇ ਉਸਦਾ ਪੰਥ ਦੀ ਸੇਵਾ ਵਿੱਚ ਕਿੰਨਾਂ ਵੱਡਾ ਯੋਗਦਾਨ ਹੈ।

ਜਗਤਾਰ ਸਿੰਘ ਉਰਫ ਜੱਗੀ ਜੌਹਲ ਦਾ ਜਨਮ ਇੰਗਲੈਂਡ ਵਿੱਚ ਇਕ ਚੰਗੇ ਪਰਿਵਾਰ ਵਿੱਚ ਹੋਇਆ, ਉਥੇ ਦੇ ਜੰਮਪਲ ਹੋਣ ਦੇ ਬਾਵਜੂਦ ਉਹ ਪੰਜਾਬ ਅਤੇ ਪੰਜਾਬੀ ਮਾਂ ਬੋਲੀ ਨਾਲ ਬਚਪਨ ਤੋਂ ਹੀ ਜੁੜਿਆ ਸੀ।

ਜਵਾਨੀ ਦੀ ਦਹਿਲੀਜ਼ ਤੇ ਪੈਰ ਧਰਦਿਆਂ ਉਸ ਦਾ ਝੁਕਾਅ 1984 ਅਤੇ ਉਸ ਤੋਂ ਬਾਅਦ ਦੀਆਂ ਸਿੱਖ ਇਤਿਹਾਸ ਦੀਆਂ ਘਟਨਾਵਾਂ ਵਾਰੇ ਜਾਣਕਾਰੀ ਇਕੱਠੀ ਕਰਨ ਵੱਲ ਹੋ ਗਿਆ।

ਉਸ ਨੇ ਲੰਮਾ ਸਮਾਂ ਬੜੀ ਮਿਹਨਤ ਨਾਲ 1984 ਅਤੇ ਸਿੱਖ ਸ਼ੰਘਰਸ਼ ਨਾਲ ਸਬੰਧਿਤ ਸ਼ਹੀਦਾਂ ਬਾਰੇ ਜਾਣਕਾਰੀ ਤਸਵੀਰਾਂ ਅਤੇ ਵੀਡੀਓਜ ਆਦਿ ਇਕੱਤਰ ਕੀਤੀਆਂ।

Hello all! This is @SikhPA with our 3rd takeover of @NevilleSouthall's account!

Today we're talking to you about the biggest protest in history- the #FarmersProtest!

This protest in India has hundreds of millions of farmers & labourers participating & is over 100 days old!
The biggest protest in history!? Over 100 days old?

Yes that's right! So why haven't you heard about it?

Well some of you may have, but the likes of @piersmorgan are too busy bashing #HarryandMeghan to cover the biggest protest ever, so good old Neville Southall has stepped in!
A protest in India though? Why does that matter to the mostly Brit followers of Neville Southall we hear you ask?

All will be explained with tweets about corporate influence, fascism & even @rihanna! But first let us explain a few things...

Keep RTing & checking Nev's timeline!

The webinar has begun, @MartinJDocherty introducing the guests.

@GSJohal85 says he appreciates the support from the public for his brother's case.

#FreeJaggiNow
@PreetKGillMP commends Martin Docherty-Hughes and the cross-party support this issue has received.

"None of us can imagine what his family have gone through," she says.

"There have been no charges levelled against him, and we know this case is going to drag on for a long time."
She adds that the UK mission to the UN has been very quiet and the UK Foreign Secretary is not showing any evidence of communication with India or Jaggi's family.

My brother #JagtarSinghJohal, a Scottish national, travels to India in Oct 2017 to get married, marriage takes place, joyful occasion on the 18th. On 4th Nov 2017 he is out shopping with his wife & cousin, unknown men pull him out of a car & hood him 1/19
bungle him into a van and drive off, leaving his wife and cousin in the middle of a busy road, screaming for help, police complaints made in India to no joy, I am called first thing in the morning and cannot believe what I've been told. I pick up the phone to the @FCO 2/19
as I believed my brother had been kidnapped. The FCO tell me they will inform their colleagues in @UKinIndia to make enquires. As the day develops, family members are told that he has been taken to a police station, upon checking there, he is not there. 3/19
